A young single mum struggling with debt dreams of giving her child a joyful Christmas with food, fuel, and a small gift.
This young single mum has faced a tough year. After splitting from her partner when their baby was born, she’s been doing everything she can to provide a safe and stable life for her child. She’s committed to paying off a significant car loan on a Centrelink income because the car is essential for getting around and keeping her child safe. Surrendering it would mean buying a cheaper, less reliable car, which would cost more in the long run—so she’s stuck. The financial strain leaves little for anything else, especially at Christmas. She’s relying on food assistance and community programs just to get by. Her wish this Christmas is simple: to put food on the table, fuel in the car, and a few gifts under the tree for her child. Your generosity can help make this season special for a mum who has worked so hard through adversity. Every donation brings hope and joy to their home.
